"Build a muscle memory for change" - lots of inspirational ideas in the latest EY report from Catherine Friday and Alison Cairns how to 'lift' powerfully when it comes to digital transformation in #highereducation ✔Have leaders who view technology as a critical enabler of the future vision for the university + who are self-aware and attuned to the feelings and expectations of themselves, their students and the workforce ✔Communicate deliberately and persistently about action + impact ✔ Teachers especially will need to fundamentally change their mindset and learn about digital pedagogy if they are to embrace their new role in a digital learning or blended/hybrid learning model. They need to see their primary role, not as a creator of content and broadcaster of information, but more as a thinking coach and facilitator of learning. ✔ Elevate and empower IT departments And this one for #cultureiseverything "I gave the St Crispin’s Day speech. Told them, ‘Team — this is an historic moment. We are going to revolutionize the field of HR, and you have been chosen to go on the spaceship. It’s going to be scary; we’re going into the unknown and there will be bumps along the way, but we are the adventurers and will discover together.” “ Michael Latsko, VP and CHRO, Arizona State University (prev.

Great read on digital transformation in higher education!

I am excited to share the latest report in our series on digital transformation in higher education. In our last report, we focused on what students and staff want from digital transformation and our follow up report provides insights on how university leaders can better deliver on those expectations. Taking a ‘Humans@Center’ approach around six key drivers that inspire staff and embrace their opinions can contribute to transformation success by as much as 2.6 times.

It was so much fun recording a lecture on Digital Transformation..and that too for Monash University! Admittedly, I was a bit nervous as never did a pre-recorded session before. However, the thing is...after first few attempts you start to get a hang of it and then by the time you are done...you WANT MORE 🤣 Here is a short sneak peek of the lecture. Do share in comments what you think 🫣 and if I should do more videos 🤔 Thanks Paul Thambar for your support and encouragement! #lecture #Digitaltransformation #digitalculture #monashuniversity — I write, speak and advise on: 👉 How digital disruption is reshaping the Enterprise of the Future. 👉 Process Excellence, and 👉 Building Digital IQ and Mindset ✅ Subscribe and get exclusive content on Digital Transformation in your inbox → https://lnkd.in/g-fukcMW

The world is going through digital transformation, including at universities. The traditional model of universities may be a problem during the transformation, as many of the universities can be fragmented and siloed structures. Also, as it turns out, many individual faculties operate as small kingdoms, resistant to strategies that require centralisation and coordination of efforts across all departments. Our 2022 cross-industry study together with the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School identified a model for success— namely an approach that puts humans at the centre, aligned around six core practices. Moreover, understanding and supporting the emotional and psychological impact of digital transformation is, among other things, what university leaders should demonstrate, when embracing the needs and wants of their staff, as universities seek to transform. By doing so, they will be two to three times more likely to succeed in their transformation initiatives. Here you will find six ways of how to put humans at the centre of digital transformation: https://lnkd.in/dNDDVBFJ #EY_Consulting #Technology
